Geographic Patterns in the Evolution of Resistance and Virulence in Drosophila and Its Parasitoids

Many insects are attacked by internal parasitoids against which they mount a largely cellular immunological defense. The resistance of a host and the virulence of a parasitoid determine which species survives after parasitism. Drosophila is parasitized by several hymenopterous parasitoids, especiall...
